Also I know Shadow Raid gets a bad rap for being kind of an RNG fest, but I really love it. It's one of those heists that's just oozing with charm and character. Specifically the music, oh my goodness, the music! It's fucking fantastic and it adds so much life to what would honestly be just a boring stealth heist. It makes me feel so rad when the music picks up after I've cracked open the vault and started packing up the armor. And by the looks of it the Golden Grin might deliver a similar product I.E a unique and all around fun to play heist, definitely excited for it.
Bonnie's voice is great but she doesn't sound like a 42 year old chain smoker, I was expecting her to have the voice of a blender. She looks much younger than her age but then again, imagine the contrast between her voice and concept art.
What really irks me is when they use the same lines for multiple characters. Instead of giving them individual personalities it just makes them more generic, eg Clover using Hox's "I owe you a pint" and now Bonnie has his "get a shufty on". I suspect and fear the upcoming voice update will just be a mish mash of "Haha stereotypes!!!" in place of creating actual personalities.
I know I'm late to the party but can I just say I'm really enjoying playing as Bonnie and using and the new shotgun. It's like the Mosconi before they ruined it.

Day 2 watchdogs, got my shotty with flechette rounds, sitting on the red crate, picking off all kinds of units as they hop the fence, it's like duck hunt but with humans.

Tazers bug out so often that you get a free reload mid taze anyways
[QUOTE=Dermock;47334992]I said shotgun perks so of course i mean overkill/beserker. If you're playing right you'll always have beserker active and nearly always under the effects of overkill.
If dodgeforcing low blow also becomes a factor.[/QUOTE]
Having berserker always active is not a good sign.
I admit I'm not exactly an espert about Overkill, as it's one of my least picked skills. Maybe it will redeem the pump action shotguns
I've only just realised how much I want an official level editor for payday 2. The amount of content possible would be potentially endless.
I can imagine myself recreating the Time Heist episode of Doctor Who tweaked to work with payday's mechanics.

I'm honestly very glad they got the PaydayCon crap out of the way early on. If they promised a surprise and then it turned out that ;) was PaydayCon crap right before the HR, that might've rustled things a bit.

My personal guess is that "Birds of a Feather Flock Together" could be announcing who gets to fly down to meet the devs together.

Some people actually want to know things about Paydaycon so they can look into plane tickets and all that jazz
Just causer you think it's crap doesn't mean it automatically is
How could you even think it was a secret, it can't be cause of the hype train dummy :v:
[QUOTE=doommarine23;47335385]Clover's shrieking used to be the most annoying thing but now it is the banshee cry of waifu to me.
My ears are bleeding and I can't tell if that liquid is love or blood[/QUOTE]
If that's not true love, I don't know what is.
[QUOTE=asteroidrules;47335098]Something that's kind of annoyed me about the new heisters is that, with the exception of Jacket, they don't have much character beyond nationality. Clover's Irish, Dragan's Croatian, Bonnie's Scottish, unlike the original guys that's really all there is to them.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I feel like it's getting to the point where that's pretty much the only novelty of each new character. Overkill seems to know it too, because they take quite a few opportunities to make sure you know this crew member is a Croat/Scot/Irish.
Although, without a doubt, the biggest problem I have with Overkill adding so many new members to the crew is adding more to their plate when they can barely handle what's on it to begin with. I mean, let's face it, Overkill really, really sucks when it comes to updating and ensuring all members of the crew have a full array of voice lines proper, and there are quite a few missing to this day [I]even on new characters who were recently voiced[/I].
I remember reading how they plan on having a large session to update them all in the future, but who knows when that's going to happen. And I'm sure by the time it does happen, we'll already have another two or so new characters which will already stack more onto their backlog.
[QUOTE=Uzbekistan;47335857]Not expecting anything big seeing as it's the day before hoxton breakout[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure you meant Hoxton's Revenge, but this post reminds me that Crimefest [I]also[/I] led up to the point where something Hox related released. Looking back, what did we get? A gun, and a mask. So I'm gonna presume we'll get the same here.
[QUOTE=Confuzzlement;47333815]So I tried jumping on one of those shadow raid death wish ecm rush exp grind trains that all the cool kids seem to be doing right now. Such a odd experience. I still can't tell if its any more effective than just a overkill hoxton breakout but its certainly more consistent if a bit boring.[/QUOTE]
At Infamy 0, 100% Hype Train bonus, -30% heat bonus, and 5% stealth bonus, you would get 509,355 XP per Shadow Raid DW run. Our crew usually gets it done before 2:30, but let's just round it up to 3:00 per attempt. That's 169,785 XP per minute.
At Infamy 0, 100% Hype Train bonus, 0 heat bonus, and 5% stealth bonus, Hoxout Pro Overkill & DW are 2,032,800 XP and 2,587,200 XP, respectively. You would need to complete [I]the entire heist[/I] in 12 and 15 minutes for Overkill & DW Hoxout to match the XP per minute of an ECM rush Shadow Raid. This isn't possible.

Annoying to deal with from the front but probably weak at the back. Probably gonna be mostly unnoticeable if you're indoors.

It's going to be everything. It's going to be so overpowered like all the other dumb shit Overkill hasn't bothered to change for some reason (looking at you HRT units), but it's also probably going to do something buggy like shoot through walls, or become invincible somehow.

Who thought it was a good idea to start the Stream before downloading the update? Avoid dead air at all costs is pretty much rule number one of broadcasting.
